If I have been using the Wii Monster Cable GameLink Component Kit http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000... do I need this? Any advantage?

You would not need this. The advantage of this part is to allow you to plug your WII into an HDMI connector on your receiver or TV. If you already have the ability to plug it into component cables on your TV or receiver, then you don't need this part.

It is true that component cables or an HDMI cable help with video quality, however, you'll not need (or even be able to use) these cables to connect your basic cable incoming signal. If you subscribe to a premium cable service such as "digital cable" then you'll also have a cable box (decoder) which would offer you the option to use component or HDMI cables to connect your cable service to your TV. Otherwise, it isn't even an option.Should you also choose to connect your DVD/VCR/computer to your TV then the comments posted here by other posters would be relevent--that being that you could use component or HDMI cables to connect THOSE devices to your TV with a resultant improvement in your video quality.Al It is true that component cables or an HDMI cable help with video quality, however, you'll not need (or even be able to use) these cables to connect your basic cable incoming signal.

Bought bundle for young grandchildren with a Wii system. Nothing written on back in figures or on sets to exclude any gaming system. My understanding is that with PS3 or XBOX360 that there are more levels and you can play online with multi players where with the Wii you can only play in the toy box.

I think a special cable is needed for wii... I use it with the PS3 by the standar usb cable.

Yes but you have to buy the gamecube plate seperate. I have not tried gamecube games yet myself since I have not bought the kit.

No, the official Nintendo wave bird receiver is necessary. Other 3rd party receivers won't operate on the same fequencies

I have a sony bravia hi-def, an Xbox and a Wii I'd like to use these for... Do you know if I'd have to purchase any additional equipment/cables, etc? I'm trying to purchase for my boyfriend for Christmas and I'm totally clueless when it comes to electronics.

No, if you're referring to the Yellow, Red, & White connectors, this will not work. What you can do is get the RCA Component cables for your video game systems (Component cables have the same Red & White connectors for Audio, but replace the "Yellow" video connector with Red, Blue, & Green video connectors). If you do this, you will actually get better signal quality from your video games. I have a DVD Player, PlayStation 2, and Wii hooked up to mine after buying component cables and it works well. I recommend "Mediabridge" cables for your game systems. I find they are excellent quality (great shielding and strong connections) at very good prices.

Works with my wii. Any controller that works with the Gamecube should work with the Wii (same attachments/plugs)

If you have a cable with a vga connectir such as http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0015MISAG?pc_redir=1412322866&robot;_redir=1Then yes. If however you only have the component cable that came with the wii then no

Yes - the Wii cables are replaced by this device and a stand-alone HDMI cable. Please read reviews and use at your own risk.

The LD450 does have two composite connections. On a side note you can get HD component cables for the wii for about $7 shipped. Purchasers state that they did notice improvement on their hd tvs. I'll have to wait till my tv arrives to confirm. Cable located here 6FT. HD Component Cable for Nintendo Wii

It should work just fine. (never used it with wii u disks myself) You could get the Skipdr Wii Disc Repair/clean to be on the safe side. Digital Innovations 4090100 Skip Dr. Accessory Kit for Nintendo Wii. Or you can buy this and use it in any Skip Dr disk cleaner.

Some external hard drives need the extra power from a second port on the Wii U. Its not necessary on the Wii from my experience.

No. If you have a wireless connection, chances are you don't need anything else. I did, however, as I am using a free-wireless connection and don't have access to the main router. I just hooked the connector to my laptop and created a Nintendo-exclusive access point for both my DS and Wii.

You dont need a Y cable for the Wii, just for the Wii U. And for your second question, YES, an USB 3.0 external hard drive works with the Wii

I play project m on it all of the time. You have to play with the configurations on it to emulate a true gc controller. It may not be 1 to 1 accuracy but I think it works well enough for practice if its your only option. Playing on a gamecube or wii would be better if you have it.
